The Fujita scale is used to rate the intensity of tornadoes based on the severity of the damage they cause. It ranges from F0 at the weakest to F5 at the strongest.
The Enhanced Fujita Scale (EF Scale) is a commonly used guide for tornado intensity. It categorizes tornadoes based on the damage they cause and estimates wind speeds associated with the damage.
The Borg Scale is a simple method of rating perceived exertion (RPE) and can be used by coaches to gauge an athlete's level of intensity in training and competition. It is also used in the health care setting by physiotherapists/physical therapists to help breathless patients improve their levels of activity while maintaining control of their breathing. Very basic info but I . O.
Gabriel Fahrenheit is known for inventing the alcohol and mercury thermometers as well as the Fahrenheit temperature scale. His scale was later replaced by the Celsius scale in most parts of the world, but it is still used in the United States and some other countries.
Is is used to keep track of very large or very small numbers. For instance pH of an acid refers to the -log of the H+ concentration. Each time pH increases by one the actual concentration increases by a factor of ten. Many time you are dealing with very small number such as 1.76 x 10-5. If you take the negative log of this number then you get a pH of about 4.75. Logs are also used in the Richter Scale, Stellar Brightness, and the Decibel scale for the same reasons. An earthquake with an intensity of 1 on the Richter scale has the approximate energy of 6oz of TNT. An earthquake with a magnitude of 8 is about the same amount of energy as 6 MILLION tons of TNT.
There are three tornado scales currently in wide use. The first and most well-known is the Fujita scale, which runs from F0 to F5. This scale rates tornadoes based on the severity of the damage they cause and provides courresponding wind speed estimates. Next is the Enhanced Fujita scale. This replaced the Fujita scale in the United States in 2007, and in Canada in 2013. This scale is similar to the Fujita scale, running from EF0 to EF5. The difference is that it has more specific damage indicators and adjusted wind speed estimates for the damage levels. Finally there is the TORRO scale used by some European countries. This scale rates tornadoes similarly based on damage, but runs from T0 to T11. Every two ratings on this scale are equivalent to one evel on the Fujita scale. That is, T0 an T1 are equivalent to F0 while T10 and T11 are equivalent to an F5.
A scale is used to measure things...I see you've tagged "tornadoes" so you may be referring to the Fugita Scale--which is used to measure the damage caused by a tornado.
The Fujita scale, or Fujita intensity scale, is a scale used to rate tornado intensity based on the damage caused by a tornado. It ranges from F0 (weakest) to F5 (strongest) and is no longer in use, having been replaced by the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale which takes additional factors into account.
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale

the Fujita scale (not the fajita scale) is used to tell how powerful a tornado is.
